Standard F4 (search help) in the web dynpro JAVA

Hi,
         I have a small doubt in web dynpro Java. Basically I am an ABAP developer. We created some custom Remote function modules (RFM). Now are able to call RFM through web dynpro JAVA in the portal. We are able to run the RFMs in the portal.
         But we have problem with search help. How can I built the search help for the input fields in the portal using web Dynpro  Java.
         Can we bring standard search help (which is exist in R/3) in the portal?

Hi,
I think there is no standered functionality available in WDJava to achieve this functionality like ABAP or WDAbap. but, you can still achieve this using OVS option. to do this also, first you should have an interface which can talk to the R3 system and search the dB as per the query parameters i.e, an RFC which can the desired form of input and give you the desired output.
for more info on OVS, please look into this below links.

  • No NWDI activity asked while modifying the Web Dynpro java code

    Hi,
    We have 2 team in our project, one offshore team and one onsite team. We have NWDI also in our landscape.
    I have created 1 project in my local NWDS from DTR using create project  option from NWDI track , when i do any modification in that web dynpro code once it appears in my local NWDS, its asking for the activity, all this is fine.
    But when my offshore team send me this project from offshore (offshore team also working on this project), i go to my local machine under C:\Documents and Settings\user\.dtc\0\DCs\xyz.org\.. (workspace, where all the project folders are created in my local machine ) and replaces the web dynpro project  (which i created using create project option from NWDI track ) with the project which offshore teams gave me  that is I copy paste the project folder I received from offshore team.
    I closed the NWDS and reopened NWDS, i did repair and reload also, but now when i try to do any code modification in that project its not asking any activity at all. So i want to know the reason why its not asking activity at all while modifying the code.
    if now i do any code changes, and since no activity is asked, it wont be transported to QA and Prd system.
    Can anyone have any suggestion on this..

    Hi GLM,
    I think you might be right that some files are in read as well as write mode. I went to my local machine and checked the project folder C:\Documents and Settings\user\.dtc\0\DCs\xyz.org\testproject\_comp\.dcdef  file , its not in read only mode, that is read only flag was not checked.
    I again checked the mode of .dcdef file in other web dynpro projects which are asking for the activity in all those projects mode of .dcdef was read only that is read only flad was checked in .dcdef file.  ( I am not sure is .dcdef file only giving this problem that si because of this file not in read only mode I am not asked for the activity)
    So could you plzz tell me how to make in read only. when ever i click the read only check box of .dcdef file and reload the project in my NWDS. that read only check box is getting removed. how to do this..
    regarding your query, landscape in offshore team and onsite team are different, client has not provided nay access to its landscape to ofshore team so offshore team can not check in / check out the code written by me and same applies to me I can not check in / check out the code written by offshore team , only option is offshore team do some changes in the code and send the project folder via email and I have to deploy in client landsacpe and do further modification.

  • PERNR search help in ABAP Web Dynpro

    All,
    I wish to add a search help based on PERNR into my web dynpro application.
    I have used the code:
    *create a range table
      lt_range_table = wd_this->m_handler->create_range_table( i_typename = 'ZEMP_SEL' ).
    *add a new field to range table
      wd_this->m_handler->add_selection_field( i_id = 'PERNR'
                                               it_result = lt_range_table
                                               i_read_only = read_only ).
    And I have defined ZEMP_SEL as a data element with domain PERNR. This has added the search help to my screen but when i used it and select an entry from the search help, it populates the screen with the employee name and not the employee number.
    Does anybody know why this would happen? or what should I use in I_TYPENAME for the search help to work properly
    thanks

  • Need help in ALV web dynpro

    Hi all,
    I need help in the web dynpro ALV.
    I have an ALV generated dynamically. On the ALV, there is filter and settings link on the extreme right of the alv header.
    How is it possible to get them left align after the export button ?
    I want to maitain some gap between the export button, filter and settings.
    Please give me inputs.
    Thanks in Advance.

    Hi Jatra,
    I am working on an ALV table in a standard Web Dynpro ABAP application.
    The business requirement is to hide the header for the ALV table.
    The header has a dropdown to choose u201CStandard Viewu201D and 2 options: Filter and Settings.
    The footer for the ALV table containing the Row and Column numbering also needs to be hidden.
    I am looking at the IF_SALV_WD_TABLE_SETTINGS to find the relevant methods to hide the header and footer.
    Please let me know if I am on the right track and if there is an alternate way to do this through changing the layout of the ALV table. I tried to hide the header and footer manually via the layout but am unable to do so, as the ALV table is just displayed as ViewContainerUI Element.
    Please help me as to how to hide the header and footer as I am new to ALV in WDA.
    Thanks and Regards.

  • Adding a field in Web dynpro java in Travel Request application

    Hi All,
    How to add a field in Web dynpro java in Travel Request application or can we copy the Web dynpro java application to Web dynpro ABAP and add a field. Experts, Can you please suggest me step by step in resolving the problem.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Kumar

    Hi Kumar,
    First, in order to customise the ESS webdynpro Java iViews you need to be aware that, you are about to change the SAP standard iviews. In order to avoid this you can make a copy of the SAP standard one's and then try to customise the copied one's.
    Now, you should have NetWeaver Development Infrastructure(NWDI) installed. Once it is installed you should also install the Netweaver Developer Studio (NWDS) on your computer.
    Once you have these two installed, you should deploy the ESS Business Package onto the NWDI by creating tracks. There is a cookbook available on SAP Service Marketplace for configuring NWDI for ESS.
    Once you have all the above mentioned tools, have a look at the following blog which clearly explains about the procedure of customising ESS iviews.
    /people/vinoth.murugaiyan/blog/2007/08/24/essmss-customization-150-make-it-simple
    Also check the following Wiki, this might be useful!
    https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/wiki?path=/display/erphcm/employee%252bself%252bservice
    I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any issues.
    Dont forgett to contribute points if this is useful! All the Best.

  • Can Web dynpro Java application run as background application

    Hi Experts,
    Is it possible to execute the Web dynpro java application in background without opening the application in a web browser.
    We just want the WD java application deployed on the SAP Web AS server to be invoked and get executed as a background application by some external web application. It should not get open at any point of time in a web browser.
    Can anyone suggest if it is possible?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Anurag

    Hi Anurag,
    Since Web Dynpro is "SAPu2019s standard UI technology based on MVC for developing user interfaces" (see http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/nw-wdjava) it is by design not possible to run 'in the background'.
    There are other possibilities to develop server processes per your requirements, such as developing web services or servlet development.
    Web services are the de facto standard for executing business logic on a remote server. However, as I understand your external web application is not capable of sending web service requests, have you tried the servlet approach?
    See http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwce711core/helpdata/en/3f/f8bc3d8af79633e10000000a11405a/frameset.htm for more info on how to develop a servlet using NWDS.
    Take particular attention to the sub-topic 'Servicing Client Requests' of the above guide
    Hope this helps!
    Best regards,

  • Date format problem in web dynpro java

    Currently, the date format that gets displayed in our webdynpro java application is MMDDYYYY...i am assuming this is because the web dynpro application has language resource set to en_US as its Current locale in the web dynpro deployed content section.  Howver i want it to display as DDMMYYYY. I have changed the default properties in visual admin for web dynpro from en to en_GB however this has no impact what so ever as the current locale is always set to en_US even after the change so am wondering this property is hidden some where else.  Now the web dynpro i am talking about is a adobe portal application. Could you give me any pointers as to where else i can look for or how i can change the current locale properly ??
    Regards
    Kal

    The date format in the Web Dynpro Java Application depends upon locale. At runtime WDJ will do the following process to get the current locale for the date format to be determined.
    1. First the WDJ Application will check for the locale set for the user in UME.
    2. If there is no default locale in UME, then the it will check for the locale in the in the browser which in most cases by default is en-us.
    3. If not, then it will check for the sap.systemLocale in the Propertysheet default of Visual Admin
    4. If there no locale specified in Visual Admin, itu2019s taken from the WAS JVM

  • Web Dynpro Java in ESS

    Hi!
    After studying the release notes of ESS1.2 (ERP6.0, Enh. Pack. 2) I realized that the Web Dynpro Java ESS applications for travel management have been replaced with Web Dynpro ABAP. Does anybody know if this is this to be expected for the other scenarios as well?
    Regards,
    Thomas

    Additionally, I would like to point out that a definite statement of SAP regarding this issue - future development technology for self services - would be very helpful - if not to say desperatly needed - as we have to migrate old ITS-scenarios and now decide a) about sizing of portal servers, b) set up a NWDI, c) send IT-staff to Web Dynpro Java courses a.s.o.

  • Portal Eventing between Web DynPro Java iView and non-Web DynPro iView

    Dear Experts,
    I have 1 Web DynPro Java iView and 1 non-Web DynPro (using JSPDynPage and JSP) iView, both attached to a page. When Web DynPro Java iView fire a portal raise event, the portal iView did not execute the javascript function tied to the event subscribed.
    Here is the code snippet which reside in the Web DynPro Java iView that is used to fire the event
    String param = "test";
    WPortalEventing.fire("urn:com.company.Test1", "TestEvent", param);
    This the code snippet that is in the jsp page
    function notifyTest(param)
         // Code to print param value here
    EPCM.subscribeEvent("urn:com.company.Test1", "TestEvent", notifyTest);
    Note:
    1. When Web DynPro Java iView fire the portal event the entire page is refreshed, including the non-WDP iView.
    2. When EPCM is replaced with window.top.EPCM, the page is refreshed, it is totally hanged with progress bar.
    Can anyone help to solve this problem?

    hi
    Please write the below code snippet in ur jsp for notifyTestjavascriptfunction
    function notifyTest( eventObj ) {
         eventParameter=eventObj.dataObject;
         // code to print the parameter "eventParameter"
    Thanks

    Hi, I am getting a message that "application not found " While deploying the web dynpro java application .......... please give me a solution for this .

    Hi Ram,
    This error comes generally when your webdynpro project does not have an application. To create an application in your webdynpro project follow the underlying steps:
    <Project>->WebDynpro->Applications ---> right click and create New Application.
    Follow the steps to create the application.
    Now if you create archive and deploy, it will not give you the error again.

  • Web Dynpro ABAP replaces Web Dynpro Java

    Hi, all!
    The release notes for ESS 1.2 (ERP6.0, Enh.Pack. 2) say that all WDJ applications within travel management have been replaced with WDA. Does anybody know if this reflects a general strategy of SAP - drawing back from WDJ, replacing existing Java-apps with ABAP and developing new scenarios in WDA?
    It would be important to get a definite statement on this issue as we are now implementing ESS on portal basis and have to decide wheater to discard the old ITS-scenarios and modify the new Java-based Web Dynpros or keep the old ITS-services with interal ITS and wait for the WDA applications to arise.
    Any hints are more than appreciated!
    Regards,
    Thomas

    Hi all,
    to stop the discussions please have a look at the identical thread in the Web Dynpro Java forum:

  • Qtn: I have 10 standard elementary search helps in collective standard search help, how to deactivate the 10th elementary search help?

    Qtn: I have 10 standard elementary search helps in collective standard search help, how to deactivate the 10th elementary search help?

    Hello,
    this topic is still a problem for me, does anybody have an idea.
    Just to show what's my problem:
    Collective Search help KRED does include a SAP append-search help ASH_KRED which holds the elementary search helps KREDC, KREDE, KREDM, KREDW.
    The search helps KREDE, KREDM, KREDW should not be displayed, so I added another Serach-Help-Append ZKRED_CUST at the end of CSH KRED which holds these 3 SH's with the hidden flag.
    That works, the SH's are not shown anymore.
    I also added some other of the Original SAP SH's (e.g. KREDA) with the hidden flag and added changed copies of these (e.g ZKREDA) there to be shown instead.
    All this can be done modification free by appends.
    The folders of the elementary search helps are shown in the order as they are found included in the KRED SH and the append to this SH.
    This means that the not hidden Sh KREDC from ASH_KRED is shown before all the "custimized" ZKREDx -SH's. But we need this SH not very often, so that I want it to displayed al the right-most position of the folders of SH's or at the most down postition of the drop-down-selection of SH's.
    But I have not found any way to do this modification free.
    The only way to archive this is to modify ASH_KRED by setting the Hidden-Flag for KREDC and add this SH at the end of append-SH ZKRED_CUST again.
    But I want avoid this modification.
    So, is there any way to do this without modifing any of the original SAP SH's ?
